Technical Benefits of Laser Cutting
- The high energy focused heat source provides for accuracy up to =/-0.10.
- Little thermal effect and no mechanical distortion.
- Hardened steels can be cut with minimal effect on temper Plated or coated steel can be cut with minor edge damage.
- Very thin materials can be cut without the problems of tool clearance normally required.
- Lasers can cut materials in intricate shapes normally found impossible using conventional manufacturing techniques.
- Fragile materials can be cut without damage.
- High finish materials can be cut without surface marring.
- Accurate profiles in already folded products such as square tube or cabinet doors.
- High degree of control, providing unlimited profiling capability due to the absence of a cutting edge.
- Kerf compensation for accurate cutting of mating components.
